I've said my costume before but am always glad to repeat it. I was Eowyn and wore her shieldmaiden outfit (done lovely by, once again, my aunt). I added a brown cape to it (thanks to Em for sewing it!) and a nice cheap plastic sword (I'm poor ). I didn't really get any compliments (except by the people I went with) because wow, let's just the SLC line party had GREAT costumes! I was so confident about mine and when I arrived I felt almost plain (my costume isn't that plain but compared...). We even had a man dressed up as Gollum; crawling around on all fours! There were people dressed up as Orcs (they looked so real and convincing!!!!) and there were even two people who dressed up as the two towers! Let's just say I was fairly outnumbered. I'm still blown away by it all!
